Forum: etree Subject: Re: MD5 failure - what now

What I'm saying is that the verification is already there, usually twice in flac sets (built in and fingerprints). Why add the third?

One last point - until the system is adjusted to use fingerprints, the MD5 is the only file that will let the system know that it is missing files. This prevents an incomplete show from being imported.

The internal checksums of FLAC's don't allow us to do that. Just another reason to include the MD5 with all of your uploads. Everyone is human, and this reduces the possibility of human error.

will, and I already have. ;o)

Thanks!!!

Alright, back to my original problem. This show:
http://www.archive.org/audio/etree-details-db.php?id=20815

I upped an md5 as instructed and EVERY file failed. How is this possible? They're the correct file size on the ftp and I've uploaded them 3 times already. What's going on???

How did you create that MD5? That seems to be the issue with the 100% failure. Here's the FLAC output so you can get this show moving John.

Well I got rid of the md5 since it obviously wasn't helping. Uploaded d01t03 again (thanks for checking it for me) and again it failed. Deleted and reuploaded, again it failed. One more time and another fail. I double checked and everything is ok on my end (file checks out just fine over here).

Any advice? What's going on?

Can you tell me what size file that is on your end? Server copy is 24,195,037 bytes (24.195 MB).

When you say "Uploaded Again", are you deleting the file from the upload server completely and then re-uploading it?

I just purged the server copy, try sending us that file one more time John.

Same thing. File should be 24195037 bytes, which is what you have too, right?

I'm stumped.

Huh, really weird. Can you decode and re-encode the FLAC then re-upload it?

Sorry, been a busy holiday. Just got around to decoding, reencoding, and reuploading. Again it failed.

What now?

be sure that you are creating Md5's just for the MUSIC FILES only. Do not include that .txt files in the MD5. Upload all text files independently of the music files.

Hope that helps.

Text files have nothing to do with this, it's a single flac file that's failing verification even though the size is correct. There aren't even any md5s up anymore.
